Man, I never stood behind anything...  

I used to go "walkabout", akin to the Angus Young trip, along, of course, with 
my trusty wireless system!  

As for the keytar, Ridiculous, nah, more likeincredibly stupid looking!  

It's you frustrated keyboard droids, attempting to be like us guitar gods...  

Man, it just ain't gonna happen!  

Axe men rule!!!  End of story!  

chuckle!

  Ridiculous?  Yes.  Having said that, I think it's the most fun I've had on 
stage, though it cost me a job as the guitarist didn't like it when I 
out-soloed him.  You string players are such delicate flowers (highly strung?). 
 It's jealousty really - it gets boring standing behind a stack of boxes and 
wires all night.

   

  Best wishes.

  It's a keyboard that you wear around your neck like a guitar!  

   

  It looks ridiculous...

    I could be wrong, but I believe a keytar is a cross between a keyboard and 
a guitar.

    Hi Steve!

    What on earth is a Keytar? I have never heard of that before.

      Hi DJX,

       

      The two you mentioned are the best I've heard, I think the problem I have 
is I'm a wanna be guitarist. I play a Keytar for part of my live show, it's the 
Roland AX1 using external expansions as there are no sounds on board the AX1.

       

      I thought Roland was going to impress with the new AX Synth, but it's not 
only over priced at around £899 mark, it's also awful sounding with hardly any 
guitar patches.

       

      Roland and Yamaha really need to up there game, they are simply churning 
out variations of the same old Keyboard technology from years gone by.

       

      Roland have upped their game regarding guitarists and technology, The 
Roland VG99 processor is brilliant for guitarist, creating all types of guitar 
sounds, surely Roland could adapted so the virtual technology responded with 
say a dedicated keytar Controller.

       

      Stevie Wonder was over in the UK a Week or so ago, he played at 
Glastonbury (a big music festival over here).

      He started the show by playing a Keytar, he played it quite well,, but it 
didn't have the guitar sound that someone of his legendry status deserves. 

       

      Maybe the guitar has too many sound variations to be created convincingly 
by a keytar or the likes.

        Hey Steve, have you played musicLab's realGuitar, RealLPC or RealStrat? 
That's probably the most convincing guitar engine i've heard, specially when 
ran through some good guitar fx pedals or plugs. If you've heard/used them, 
what do you think of them?

         

        D!J!X!

        Hi Manny,

         

        I don't think Phil will mind if I answer your question.

         

        technology is getting close to capturing the sound of real drums and 
the way they behave. 

        there are also very good bass guitar sounds on some of the expensive 
softsynths, it's down to your understanding of drumming and bass playing to 
whether you can make the drums and bass guitars sound believable.

         

        We're miles away from capturing the versatility of a real guitar. I 
know this because I can't play guitar and keep looking for convincing ones.

         

        Phil is one of those musicians who plays many instruments at 
professional standard, I'm sure the drums would be real if he had the right 
acoustic sounding room to set them up in.

         

        The guitars are real and the bass guitar is also real, however, he has 
a digital wife that he simply plugs in and she sings in perfect pitch with auto 
quantising. 

         

        I just can't help myself, I start off seriously enough? well, off to 
get my brain defragged.


        Steve W
